About the Author
Carl Johan Calleman holds a Ph.D. in physical biology from the University of Stockholm. A leading expert on the Mayan Calendar, he is the author of The Mayan Calendar and the Transformation of Consciousness and The Purposeful Universe. He lives in Santa Fe, New Mexico.
“The first novel idea about the rise of civilization in many
decades.”
*James Redfield, author of The Celestine Prophecy and The Twelfth
Insight*
“The Global Mind and the Rise of Civilization addresses one of the
crucial issues of our time, on which our future may depend: the
relationship between human consciousness and the brain. The
evidence shows that mind and brain are not identical, as we have
been led to believe. Minds are capable of things that brains cannot
do. The implication--that we are more than our physical brains and
bodies--will likely be regarded as the most important discovery of
our era. Let Calleman be your guide on this exciting journey.”
*Larry Dossey, M.D., author of One Mind: How Our Individual Mind Is
Part of a Greater Consciousness a*
“In The Global Mind and the Rise of Civilization, Carl Johan
Calleman formulates a unique outlook on human civilization, one
that is deeply rooted in metaphysical changes in human
consciousness. The effect is to reconcile diverse aspects of
symbolism, myth, and theology, drawn from a wide range of ancient
cultures.”
*Laird Scranton, author of The Science of the Dogon and Point of
Origin: Gobekli Tepe and the Spiritu*
“Calleman examines how the two hemispheres of the brain have
parallels with the East and West civilizations and suggests that
the global mind is connected to the Earth’s inner core.
…fascinating book.”
*Nexus Magazine, August 2016*
